The first half of ‘A Sacrifice‘ is remarkably dull considering that it starts off showing viewers nothing new. It is not even non-captivating, rather it is significantly forgettable the type of film whose title escapes you at any point of the viewing. To make things worse, the final act escalates to a whole new level […]

After the comparatively “normal” visions of “The Favourite” and “Poor Things,” Yorgos Lanthimos is back in provocateur mode. Working more in the vein of his earlier, more surreal flicks like “The Lobster,” “Dogtooth” and “The Killing of a Sacred Deer,” the filmmaker’s latest reunites him with Efthimis Filippou, the co-writer of those movies, to deliver

While it’s not the best movie within the genre, It Is still an enjoyable action film from the 1980s and is sure to satisfy fans within the genre. It may also be one of the most clichéd films in this genre. Eye of the Tiger stars Gary Busey as a recently released convict and a

The #1 record holder for attendance at a women’s sporting event in history was a gauntlet fought on and off the field, a feat you likely haven’t heard of. It’s Copa 71, the first, though unofficial, women’s soccer World Cup. Co-directed by James Erskine and Rachel Ramsey and executive produced by tennis icons Venus and
